[QUOTE="muleman1953, post: 951616, member: 27494"] Need Expert Advice! Hope this belongs here? I checked my true dial up at 100 yds, measured with a steel tape for Accuracy. When I dialed my Nightforce up 30 MOA it truly move 32.25" with the gun locked in a vice for absolutely no movement. I repeated this 3 times & everytime I moved from 0 to 30 MOA or back to 0 it moved at 100 yds on a Steel tape 32.25". Now if 1 MOA is 1.047" at exactly 100 yds and I take 30"X 1.047"=31.41". So shouldn't my Scope have only truly moved 31.41" instead of the 32.25"? My question is on Ballistics Program they have a Elevation Correction Factor, Is this where you make the correction if your scope is off like this? Would you divide the 32.25 by 31.41 which = 1.0267? Is this what you'd substitute instead of 1 in the Elevation Correction Factor in the program? Hope I made sense. Thank You, Wayne [/QUOTE]
